== Inhalant-related disorders == Inhalant-related disorders are a group of mental health conditions associated with the misuse of volatile substances. These disorders are recognised in both the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ([[DSM-5]]) and the International Classification of Diseases ([[ICD-11]]), though there are notable differences between the two classification systems.<ref name="i621"/> The DSM-5 identifies four primary types of inhalant-related disorders: inhalant intoxication, inhalant use disorder, inhalant-induced disorders, and unspecified inhalant-related disorder.<ref name="i621">{{cite book | title=Kaplan & Sadock's comprehensive textbook of psychiatry | publisher=Wolters Kluwer | publication-place=Philadelphia | date=2025 | isbn=978-1-9751-7573-3 | chapter=11.7 Inhalant-Related Disorders}}</ref> * Inhalant [[Substance intoxication|intoxication]] refers to acute symptoms resulting from recent inhalant use. * Inhalant use disorder is characterised by a persistent pattern of volatile hydrocarbon use that leads to clinically significant distress or impairment. * Inhalant-induced disorders encompass conditions caused by the toxic effects of inhalant substances and include inhalant intoxication [[delirium]], inhalant-induced [[Psychosis|psychotic disorder]], inhalant-induced anxiety disorder, inhalant-induced depressive disorder, and inhalant-induced major or mild [[neurocognitive disorder]]. * Unspecified inhalant-related disorder applies to cases where symptoms linked to inhalant use do not meet the criteria for the other defined categories. The ICD-11 includes a diagnosis for [[Volatile inhalant withdrawal|inhalant withdrawal]], which is not covered in the DSM-5.<ref name="i621"/>
